Hey guys I am going to be replacing the clutch in my car. The problem I am having is that I don't have the clutch out of the car yet, but I would like to order the new one and have it on hand when i take the trans out. I have a ST-10 that has these numbers on the side 1804-085-904. Can anyone tell me if that means i have an 11" 26 spline 1 1/8" input shaft? Because i think that is what it is supposed to be. I have a lakewood bellhousing, does that effect what size clucth I can run (11" or 10 1/2").

Also besides a pilot bushing, resurfacing flywheel and a throw out bearing what else should I buy or replace while I am doing this?

thanks
Tom

You need to match both the input shaft and the flywheel size. I can't help with the input shaft, can with the flywheel.

Bellhousing has nothing to do with it.

If your starter bolts are straight across and the same length, you have a 10.5" flywheel.

If one is ahead of the other and shorter, you have an 11"

Also, you won't know if u need a long or short throwout bearing until it's apart.
